Researchers at Waterloo Institute for Nanotechnology (WIN) collaborate across eleven different departments to discover and innovate new ideas, inventions and improve on our quality of life — all made possible by state-of-the-art facilities and equipment.
WIN research is global. Its membership is interdisciplinary and collaborative. Its focus is on the future and on improving the quality of life for all.
Science and discovery are at the heart of our research. But it is our commitment to real-world innovation and application engineering that defines nanotechnology research at WIN.
We believe that discovery and innovation happens at the interfaces of traditional disciplines. For that reason, WIN research faculty are drawn from eleven departments: Applied Mathematics, Biology, Chemical Engineering, Chemistry, Civil and Environmental Engineering, Electrical and Computer Engineering, Mechanical and Mechatronics Engineering, Physics, the School of Environment, Enterprise and Development, the School of Pharmacy, and Systems Design Engineering.
Characterization, 2D and quantum materials, quantum dots, CNT, biomaterials, additive manufacturing.
Sensors, MEMS/NEMS, flexible electronics, wearable devices, LoC, IoT and AI for sensors, human-machine interface.
Low-carbon sustainable technologies, batteries, solar cells, fuel cells, catalysis, artificial photosynthesis.
Targeted drug delivery, tissue engineering, minimally invasive treatment of disease, immunotherapy, medical imaging.

The University of Waterloo acknowledges that much of our work takes place on the traditional territory of the Neutral, Anishinaabeg and Haudenosaunee peoples. Our main campus is situated on the Haldimand Tract, the land granted to the Six Nations that includes six miles on each side of the Grand River. Our active work toward reconciliation takes place across our campuses through research, learning, teaching, and community building, and is co-ordinated within the Office of Indigenous Relations.
